Why you dont play with guns (why idiots shouldnt have guns)

[nvb]

great example of the importance of proper gun etiquette. i have been in a room twice when a gun went off by accident, luckily no one was hit but as your pictures demonstrate, luck was all it was. a gun is not something people can be careless with

I imagine that being on the trigger end of a ND like this is only one rung down the horror ladder from being on the muzzle end. For any individual capable of feeling, there would be nightmares for years to come, and rightfully so.

an excuse

Can you imagine if the gun had been loaded with a varmint bullet? Would have been devistating damage to the foot. I know the shooter probably feels bad. He should. Let's hope he learned and his habits change for the better. I wish your friend a fast recovery.

Those pics make me say pwnd should have been paying attention to your handicap buddy.

 

[fireman28]

Ouch!! At least the bullet went all the way through.
Are they still friends?

my thought exactly

hope he heals quick, but I cant help but wonder how good a friend the shooter will be when the medical bills come rolling in ?

 

[actaeon277]

So, the question is, Did he learn his safety lesson?

 

[Tydeeh22]

well.. at least it didn't tumble or expand.. much if any.

 

[04DarkShadowGT]

Just be glad it wasnt a .45, can you imagine? His foot would be gone moat likely.

At home healing up from 2 foot surgeries in the last month. Just looking at those photos are enough to make me grit my teeth!

Hope your friend has a speedy recovery. After several episodes of the HGTV show Renovation Realities, I have concluded that there are just some people who should not be allowed to either rent or purchase power tools. Sadly, despite my beliefs regarding the second amendment, after reading stories like this, I am beginning to come around to the view that there are also some people who should not be allowed to have guns.

So if the guy on the trigger end owns the rifle I vote he gives it to the guy he shot. That's the least he can do. Maybe promise to take some safety and training classes.

Thats what im worried about.

as of now, I think im more upset about it than he is.

thankfully, and also good no bullet fragmenting either. as bad as it is it could have definitely been worse.

I just hope he has to sell all his guns to pay for the medical bills. the world will be a much safer place.

Ain't it the truth. My wife and I do lots of groaning while watching that show.

He seems to be lucky it didn't sever any major nerves and missed the achilles.

Wow. Lucky SOB.

 

[The Bubba Effect]

Cheap lesson. Thank you for posting the info and the pics so that others might also learn from your friend's lesson.

 

[MikeDVB]

Interesting, mind PMing me [what you know] about how it happened? Obviously you don't want to post it publicly but I'm willing to take a grain of salt with it and am curious .

I hope your buddy will be able to walk normal again
